Fantastic! It is Friday, it is the end of the week and it is the time where we make it rain with free games! That's right, its Freedom Friday!Up first is Escape the Underground for Windows. You are Frederick, a little guy who eats blocks and rocks for a living, and unfortunately you're sent to hell. No one knows why... Anyway, your task is to try and escape, away from hell, and back to your previous life. The evil spirits want you dead, every 10 seconds. If you don't satisfy them, you will be destroyed and return to the last place you stood. Just keep in mind, you can hardly see anything, and you're in a rush. Good luck! Next is Mansionvania for Windows. Mansionvania is a castlevania insipired platformer, as the name might suggest. You play as a short policeman whose pet lizzard has been kidnapped by an evil warlock. Fight your way through his mansion and save your pet. Containing 9 levels and 4 bosses, an unique art style and plenty of challenging gameplay.

The third game for Freedom Friday is Welcome Home for Windows and Mac. Home rejuvenates your mind from stress and the formal structure that humans have developed. This game takes your mind, and twists it with philosophical thoughts about a human's mindset and his or her journey through life. This game personifies that feeling, and helps you the player better understand it and describe it. The last game this Friday is Blue Saga for Windows and Mac. Blue Saga is a free indie mmorpg currently in development but released in a beta-version, so just download the game and start playing! The game features retro pixel art and a gigantic world to explore, both by land and sea. There is only one person developing this game at the moment but updates are coming frequently.
